Current season design and research
Design points are generated per-race by the Design HQ
Research closes the gap between teams of varying levels within a league
Research gives varied rewards based on the level of the competing teams, and the staff of the team conducting research
The higher the star rating of the Chief Designer and Technical Director, the more effective research will be
Design upgrades are applied automatically once saved
Fixing cars to replace parts is not necessary to apply a design upgrade
Next season design
Generated per-race by the current active Chief Designer
Can reflect a mix of contributions from multiple Chief Designers (all those hired and made active across a season)
The higher the star rating of the Chief Designer, the better the gains will be at each race
Each car design has a limit to how far it can be upgraded within a given tier, with each tier making more levels available. The car design level cap for each tier is outlined below:
